July! what happened to the first 6 months!

Well, shock, horror! We are halfway through the year already, and I have obviously not been doing much this year.....lol.    I am still on the dating sites....but don't think it is really worthwhile, I have had a few meetings, a couple of nil sparks, and one who swept me off my feet, plied me with gifts, and then seems to have lost my phone number..... oh, shucks!  Have thought about coming off the sites, but am still giving it a shot at this stage.
I am volunteering at Bushy Park Market on Wednesdays, and am President of the Market sub-committee, I really enjoy my day at the Market. My co-workers are lovely, and it is great to meet people from around my neighbourhood.
I am doing a little writing, and have had two articles accepted on the Helium site. I have also come across some things I had written some time ago, so will be giving them a bit of a rewrite. I also have a rough plot for a short story which I will be working on over winter.
I am still doing a bit of knitting, and have a couple of other crafts that I want to have a go at as time permits.
There is a small group of singles that shared a table at the local Christmas Dinner, we have been meeting once a month for lunch or tea, and checking out different establishments around our area, it is lovely to meet up and swap news.
I have been to the movies and seen Exotic Marigold Hotel, loved it so much actually went twice. I hope to go to see The Way soon.  I have also been to see The Platters and The Drifters at Wrest Point Casino, great show.
Have joined a couple of survey and review sites and have earnt a few vouchers and gift cards which have come in handy and have helped the budget along.
